Deku: The Golden Saiyan Hero of Hope

Chapter 28: Golden Resolve

Chapter 28: Golden Resolve

Be on guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong.

A large smoke cloud engulfed the rocky area that housed the titanic battle between Hero and Villain. There was a massive amount of energy concentrated in the area just about a moment ago, but it eventually died down as it signalled the end of the fight.

Kota stared wide eyed at what he just witnessed. Never in his life, would he have expected something like that to happen right in front of him. After the death of his parents, he generally tried to avoid any Hero-related news or battles that would happen on live TV. But seeing one so up close and personal was almost a life-defining experience. He could stand frozen as he watched the two battle. One side was risking his life to defend and protect him, while the other wanted nothing more than to cause pure destruction and take life away.

Suffice to say, Kota was absolutely frightened during the battle. The same monster who took his parents away from him was about to take another life right in front of his eyes and then take his own. Kota didn't know what to do. Izuku had told him to run, but he just could not. Something in him said to stay and watch the events unfold as it would change both of their lives drastically.

And so he stayed and when he saw the Green-Haired Teenager about to die for his sake, his hands just moved on their own. They sprayed water, which is something he never does. He vowed to never use his Quirk again after the death of Water Hose, but an inner voice willed him to protect Izuku. No matter what, not let him die.

Then he witnessed Izuku miraculous get up and yell at the top of his lungs. His hair changing color, his body frame and aura changing as he could feel the pressure of his Golden Ki spreading all throughout the rocky terrain.

Then, Kota saw something that made him believe he was dreaming. From Izuku's arm, yes arm, came out a flying Golden Eastern Style Dragon that gobbled Muscular and spit him back out which knocked him out completely.

Kota pinched himself to make sure he wasn't seeing things. There was no way that was possible! But then again, Quirks were a thing, so maybe it wasn't that far fetched.

Kota looked up at Izuku. He had just finished roaring to the Heavens like he was the dragon that he just summoned. He still couldn't get over how cool that was. Then Kota looked at his aura. It was pure gold, as was his Hair color. His hair was spiked up and was defying gravity. Kota thought that was pretty cool too.

'You were right, Auntie....' Kota thought back to the speech that Mandalay had given him. A Hero that would show him the light... Kota didn't think it would never happen, he believed that a person like that could not exist. A person so pure, and selfless, to put his life on the line to save a boy that he barely even knows. A boy who disrespected him and everything he loved. He almost died tonight saving his life.

Muscular, the man who took everything away from Kota, returned to finish Kota's life and end his suffering. Kota thought that it was over. The same man who took his parent's life was going to take his life as well. It must be fate. But Kota's Golden Hero came swooping in and defeated Muscular. He had gotten rid of the man who symbolized all of Kota's sadness, sorrow, and everything he hated in the world.

And he would forever be in Izuku's debt.

Izuku panted heavily, as the blood and sweat dripped down his body. His battle wounds were still fresh as Muscular didn't pull any punches. He had also used up a lot of energy in that last attack.
